PANOS upgrade VM-100 over KVM Virtual environment

L1 Bithead

This is the our internet firewall hosted by our ISP in the cloud. I am currently in PANOS Version 8.1.3 on PA-VM-100. The VM mode is KVM.  And now they have the new PANOS version 9.0.0, when I tried to download, it reaches half way and fails with:

 

  • Failed to download due to generic communication error. Please try again later.

Does anybody has solution to this?

Hello,

The generic comm error is hard to determine. However I would revcommend not upgrading to 9.0 unless there is a feature you absolutly need. There are still things they are working out with it and can cause you more harm than good, potentially.

Hi Klier,

 

Thanks for your input. Exactly what was in my mind and now its clear. However I think i should at least get ready for it by upgrading to the latest maintainance release of 8.1.6. Any major issues people been reporting about this?

 

Regards

Hello,

I dont know since I dont run that code. However I do recommend you read hte release notes and maybe post in the general forum is anyone is having issues with that code. I do it quite often just to see what others are running into, if anything.
